Can anyone explain to me what Jack Viney exactly adds to our side. Said many of times that he's such a disruption to our midfield set up. 6 disposal in a half of football.

 

He set the tone early in the first term... and by set the tone, I mean going after balls that he didn't need to and thus stuffing it up.  A few times someone like Oliver was set to win the footy and he would come barging through and stuff it up.

I like Jack, but that's unacceptable.  He needs to stop being so selfish.

Ohhhhh no. You can’t just pin this on the players. This is Goodwin’s 4th year as coach. His list, his team, his structures. 

It doesn’t work, and he has to wear the blame.

BANG ! CORRECT!

Couldn't play much worse.

Interesting that with Hibberd out, back line is all over the place. Could have been the same with him out there of course. Really miss an in-form Jetta or small defender.

Not sure that the players who have been brought in are adding much: Harmes, ANB, Smith. Our list is just not as good as many are making out, after the first dozen or so quality really drops away. Time for a real clean-out?

Man... Accidentally logged into the AFL app. Haven't seen any of this..might just stay at work a few hours longer. Classic Melbourne absolutely perfect [censored] weak

No doubt Goodwin has to cop responsibility for us being flat from the first bounce for the 10293th time in his coaching career.

But we cannot absolve the players. Half-hearted tackles, no defensive running, hollywood handballs, dropped marks, missed kicks, laziness. They have to pull their fingers out too.

Please don’t get me wrong. Our players are pea hearted headless chickens today. Absolute rubbish from them. I can’t even start with how bad some of them are at football. Basic skills evade them. 

But 4 years in and Goodwin is still making bad selection decisions, poor match day moves and he still struggles to have us stem the flow when things go against us  

And I’m disappointed with Gawn. Captain needs to stand up. Talk and lead with your voice

That was appalling, i'm shocked.

I'll check the scores post game to see how much we lost by. 

Off the the virtual Chalet for some cheese platters for me

Just popped in to see the carnage and I agree with absolutely everything that has been said

I’ve been a defender of Oscars for a while at times but I can’t defend him now. Spud. He shouldn’t be playing anyway, I didn’t understand the decision to keep him in the team. 

 

Totally lost any belief here since last year v crows  in Darwin. Tex Walker absolutely rheemed  him. Worst performance from a defensive key defender since Paul Rowland v Peter Hudson.

Just checked the scores.  
Never ever been so happy that I don’t have Foxtel.

Go [censored] your self stupid troll. You obviously havnt been watching to not see how many goals Lever has given away this year and Wagner has always been Bog ordinary and always will. Won’t win a premiership with him in the side so give it a rest

I've been watching. Every game.

You would know that if you showed up after a win. But you don't.

Lever's 6th in the Demonland POTY votes by the way, so I'm clearly not the only one.

And Wagner played well last week. Deserved his game this week.

Where are the leaders to stand up? Max trying hard but could you please try tapping the ball to one of our guys, you never know, we might get a clearance! Tracc running around but not impacting the game, Oliver and Brayshaw trying I suppose, Jones is having a mare and if we do get possessions we just bomb it in and it comes straight back out. We were doing this early in the season so I thought we had learnt something but no it’s back to dumb play

Like Goodwin just said "They have a choice to make"

Lets see how badly we want this.

MFC syndrome says no.

SG: ‘you’ve got a choice’

 

No you have a contract to motivate, instruct and demand standards. You need to [censored] lift

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
